It's been almost a week that I was told I am no longer employed with my company. One week that I've been trying to fill the days with either sending resumes, searching endlessly monster.com or careerbuilder.com, clean house, wash clothes, take naps, read a book, play on the computer. I have probably sent 15 resumes. I have had responses but not sure it they are really jobs I want to do or am even qualified to do. I am looking for clerical type work or something to that affect. I am used to working in an office, doing a variety of tasks, being flexible. I am not sure, of course, how long I will be out of a job. I am hoping not too long. Logan's last day of school will be July 31st if I've found nothing by then, sad times. As much as we love his daycare and as much as HE loves his daycare, we just can't afford the $210/week that we so willingly pay. Even with me having a job it's tough to afford but especially with basically one income. It just won't work with all our other bills.
So, in my journey to find a new job, where I can get up each day and go to work, instead of sit at home wishing I could find something, please pray for me and my family, and keep us in your thoughts and prayers. I don't know what we'll do if I'm out of work for too long. I guess get rid of our window to the world, the internet, and do the unthinkable, have the cable turned off. Now, I can handle that IF I some sort of entertainment, like the internet. It would be hard to live without that. I know I did before, the many years ago, when we didn't even know what the internet was. But, now that we have it and have had it forever it seems, it would be hard to give up.
I know that God has a plan for me and that he is choosing to do this for a reason. I believe EVERYTHING happens for a reason. I just gotta keep my head and my hopes up and know that He will provide.

Im so sorry to hear that! I'm sure something will come along soon. If all else fell's you could take a job in retail until something better comes along. Of course then it probably wouldn't be worth having Logan in daycare. Maybe you could also ride around your area and see if there are any help wanted signs. I will be praying!
Sorry kim I don't what's going on with my acct. here. It says from "about me" but its from me, April.
Im leaving another comment to see if I fixed the problem.
Definitely praying for you! I was in the same boat about a year ago . . . it totally stinks, I know. I will keep you in mind for any jobs like what you mentioned that I come across. I'm constantly looking to see what's out there. If you do have to pull Logan out of school & need help with him while you're looking for a job, let me know, I can always let him come play with Ethan & Emmy on the days I keep them. P.S. I probably should have just emailed all this, right.
Hi Kim, I hope everything works out soon. I'll be thinking of you. I too believe that everything happens for a reason. This may end up being the best thing that could have happened!!
